Certification Roadmap

Career goal: Cloud Engineering Current level: CompTIA A+ Core 1 passed (highest score in class of 22)

Path

# Cert Status Target Notes
1 CompTIA A+ Core 1 ✅ PASSED — Highest score in class of 22
2 CompTIA A+ Core 2 🔄 Studying July 7, 2026 (goal) / July 12 (hard deadline) Diagnostic: 50% Sybex cold
3 CCNA 📅 Next ~2026 Q4 Gold standard networking cert
4 AWS SAA-C03 📅 Planned After CCNA Core cloud cert, most in-demand
5 AWS SysOps Associate 📅 Planned After SAA Operations focus, maps to homelab
6 CKA (Kubernetes) 📅 Planned After AWS Container orchestration at scale
7 AI / Prompt Engineering 📅 Planned After cloud foundation AWS AI Practitioner, DeepLearning.AI

Why This Order

  • Networking (CCNA) before cloud makes AWS 3x easier to understand
  • Associate certs before specialties — breadth before depth
  • Homelab project (KiteStacks) already demonstrates cloud engineering skills at associate level
